I'm really glad I was able to talk to my family yesterday. Its official, 12 more weeks! It's getting crazy, I can almost count it on my fingers the weeks I have left .. haha, I haven't gotten my comp yet, he will be coming in at about 4 30 my time. Well see how things go this week. I'm determined to work hard. I'm also going to request to finish in cayambe. I have 2 of my best missionary friends there right now. There are 4 elders there again, the first time that that has happened since I was there over a year ago. I would love to go back. I want to know if that's an option.
Well see. But ya had a fun day today, I hung out with elder morton and his comp in a trio all day. There's this guy that leaves on his mission tomorrow. He made a huge change in his life a year ago and decided to come back to church. He's the youngest of 9 siblings, all of which served missions, are married and have families. all are active. He's the youngest and he's 26. He got his life turned around just in time and tomorrow he leaves. He's the youngest brother of the guy who let me use his computer yesterday, hno moroni. So today, he took us three around in his car, invited us lunch and showed us some really pretty places. it was soo nice just going on a drive and relaxing. Not thinking about much, just enjoying. I got some cool pics. mas o menos.. but ya, I'm getting excited to see you guys again, but I'm planning on working hard.

Like I said yesterday, we have 1 person with a date., He's doing awesome! Well hopefully get a few more in the weeks to come.
I am reading the BoM for the mission challenge and its way awesome this time through!! We get a lot of questions each week to answer and to ponder. I'm in alma right now. I love alma 5. It makes me really think about my conversion. I feel like throughout my life I did a lot of things just because you guys told me too. I felt like I have felt the spirit before, but here in the mission I feel like I have learned a lot. I still feel like my testimony can grow a lot more, and I really want to be able to receive personal revelation more often. I loved pres nelsons talk. It hit me hard. Life is going to be really hard if we can recognize the spirit and receive personal revelation. I feel like these next 3 months will be a big moment in my life. I am going to pray harder and study more in depth. thanks for being a great parent to me. It hit yesterday that life really will never be the same like it was before. I won't be living at home. I have like a week, haha. Its going to be a big adjustment for me, but I'm excited for what's ahead.
Have a good week!
Have a good week!
